Forbidden Eclipse

'The sun loved 

the moon so much

that he died 

every night

to let her breathe.'

the beautiful forbidden lovers

never able to meet

to share warm kisses

but I remember the sneaky Moon

she sneaks out of her dark domain

I see her in bright daylight

swathed in the Sun's golden touch

opposite in the sky

they watch each other

with love so pure

although she is forbidden

in his bright domain

she is there

because she believes

that nothing is impossible

and the day comes

when they can meet

for but a few minutes

they embrace in fire

and we stare in wonder

as they meet

but then they must

drift apart

with broken hearts

she blows him kisses

whispers

'goodnight, my love'

as he sinks beneath the horizon

bursting into colors

and the Moon cries

and whispers

⠀⠀

'I love you.' ❋
